My proclivities list looks a lot like yours. Seeing your list makes me smile. It makes me smile because it tells me that I am okay, I am not alone in my proclivities. I am my proclivities, and that is okay. They are what makes me, and I am okay. I am amazing because I have proclivities and I know it. I recognize them. How cool is that. We are both cool, and amazing.
Thank you, Veronica! Yes you are definitely normal. I want to get up to Grand Rapids for a visit. What might work for you?
This was cute! I had to look it up too. I love your list!
Thank you!
I love you for all of the above.
Thank you, Kristi!
